Kagrra, consists of five talented musicians: Isshi (vocals), Akiya (guitar), Shin (guitar), Nao (bass) and Izumi (drums). The name of the band derives from the japanese word “kagura”, which stands for an ancient Japanese dance connected with the Shinto traditions. Already the name suggests that Kagrra, is strongly connected with the Japanese culture and traditions. The main concept behind the band's style is classical Japanese aesthetics which they cleverly combine with modern Rock music. In the past, their costumes and lyrics were based on particular stages from the cultural history of Japan. Although in the recent years the band has largely dropped the heavy visual style, but the sense of neo japanesque is still present in their music and lyrics.
The band was formed in October 1998 under the name CROW. In 2000 the five guys switched their label to PS Company and changed their name to Kagrra. Once they had their major debut in January 2004, PS Company retitled them to Kagrra, adding a comma to their name.
